We have been told that there is a form to be filled out and a waiting list to request oil (MC252). We need to obtain oil to conduct exposure experiments. We would appreciate any information you have on how to go about requesting BP oil.

1 Answer

BP will determine if:
1. Analytical data from Mississippi Canyon 252 oil is sufficient for the needs of the researcher

2. A surrogate oil - another light Louisiana crude - would work (especially if the request is for a large volume of oil)

3. MC252 oil is absolutely necessary for the needs of the researcher

All requests from interested researchers should be directed to Mike R. Green (mike.green2@bp.com), Reference Oil Request Manager. The Reference Oil Request team will respond to researchers and work with the researchers to determine which option will meet their needs.
